Question 2: Why does Firefox not let me drag windows after a period of time?
My question at https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/886521 was unanswered so I am reposting it here.
It won't let me drag windows as suggested at https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Tabbed%20browsing?s=drag+windows&r=0&as=s#w_moving-a-tab-to-a-new-window
The tab just remains in the same window.
Restarting firefox is a solution but it disrupts my gmail chat - the chat windows disappear. Is there a way to fix it without restarting firefox?

You should update to the latest Firefox 7.0.1 version instead of using no longer supported Firefox 5.0 version.
- Firefox 7.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
- http://kb.mozillazine.org/Installing_Firefox#Linux
Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
- Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
